Meyer Sound : D-Mitri

About

Components

D-Mitri is a modular system easily configurable to serve projects of every type and scale.

All D-Mitri components except the DCM-2 and DCM-4 matrix mixing modules are equipped with Ethernet AVB capability. The matrix mixing modules have standard Ethernet ports for control, but move multichannel audio between themselves and DCP processors over Matrix Link, a dedicated, bufferless, ultra-low latency Ethernet connection carrying audio streams at a 96 kHz sample rate and 32-bit resolution.

All D-Mitri modules feature redundant networking connectors to offer the most flexibility and ensure the highest system reliability.

How To Build It

Getting a handle on the right D-Mitri configuration for your needs is easy.

The information below is enough to give you a solid idea of your system needs, but Meyer Sound's customer support will ensure your D-Mitri system is properly configured to completely meet all of your requirements.

LCS Audio Show Control

For a system of up to 72 inputs, outputs, and buses, you need only a single DCP core processor and the input and output modules suitable for your connections. The DCP handles all audio tasks, including matrix mixing and routing, so no DCM module is needed.

For larger systems, first determine your I/O requirements: quantity and type. Then choose the complement of D-Mitri modules that meets those requirements. Add processors as needed to meet the channel count; each DCP processor handles up to 72 channels. Next, consider how many DCM matrix modules are needed to handle mixing and routing needs.

Finally, consider the options you may want. Need integrated audio playback and/or recording capabilities? Add the DWTRX Wild Tracks module. Have to connect to a MIDI-controlled lighting system or a SMPTE-driven theatrical production? Put a DGPIO module in the configuration.
